Article I:  Purpose and Objectives
            The purpose of the booster club is to promote the dance team for the students of Bemidji High School.  The main objective will be to assist in planning and implementing activities as they relate to various events and fundraising activities sponsored by the Bemidji Blue Angels Dance Team.  The goals include but are not limited to the following:
           
·        To provide support (financial and otherwise) solely on an
as-needed and on-going basis;
·        To develop a sense of pride and tradition for the dancers and parents;
·        To positively promote and publicize the high school dance team in the community;
·        To recognize accomplishments of the dance team

Article II:  Officers and Membership
            The Booster Club Officers consist of the President, Vice-President, Communication Coordinator, Treasurer and the Bemidji Blue Angels’ Varsity Head Coach.
            Membership in the Booster Club is open to all parents or legal guardians of the dancers on the team.  The entire coaching staff is also included in the Booster Club. 
            Each member that is present at a voting meeting will get a voice.  However, this will be one vote per family regardless if more than one parent is present.
            Any officer or chairperson may resign at any time by giving written notice to the President of the Booster Club.  When a vacancy occurs, it shall be filled as soon as possible and hold that position until the end of the term. 
Individuals may hold an officer position for more than one year, but it is to be voted on each year at the last wrap-up meeting.  If there is only one nominee or volunteer for a given position, no election or voting is necessary.


Article III: Booster Club Year
            The business year for purposes of the term of offices and elections shall run from November 1st to October 31st.   Meetings will be held on an as-needed basis and all parents will be notified in advance.

Article IV:  Fundraising
            The Booster Club will be involved in all of the fundraising opportunities.   The money that is raised for fundraisers throughout the dance season will be deposited into the Booster Club checking account.  The money raised at the annual dance show will be deposited into the revolving account at the high school.  The summer fundraising opportunities will be tracked individually for each girl according to MSHSL rules and deposited into the Booster Club checking account.  This will be used for summer camps or dance clinics with any remaining money to be used to off set start up costs needed to begin the dance season (warm-ups, shoes, tights, etc.)  All money that is raised on behalf of the high school dance team stays with the team.  It cannot be used toward other programs.
